What is the clause Type of the following sentence
Hi Guys,
Can anyone tell me what is the subordinate-clause type in the following sentence:
It is amazing what Faraday discovered in field......
To my knowledge, It is a noun clause, but can we use noun clauses after adjective?

Just a guess. I think the "it" is considered a dummy, or more likely, a "preparatory it," and your noun clause is the subject of the sentence. The "being" verb takes an adjective complement.
